Alleged iPhone 5S images leak, smartphone looks familiar

Yup, that's what the iPhone 5S will look like, if the latest leak delivered by the rumor mill is to be trusted. Looks quite familiar, doesn't it? In fact, the smartphone in the photos below appears to be more or less identical to the iPhone 5.

This could mean one out of two things: either Apple has decided to stick with the current iPhone design while focusing more on upgrading its internals and improving the software experience (just like it did with the iPhone 4S), or we're simply looking at iPhone 5 components that a Foxconn employee has secretly snapped photos of.

While we don't have a way of knowing whether the photos are legit or not, this isn't the first time we're lead to believe that the next iPhone will look just like the current model. Rumors from last week hint that the iPhone 5S upgrades will be mostly under the hood, and one of them will be a beefier, A7 processor. We're much more likely to see visual changes with the so-called iPhone 6, which is allegedly due to land later in 2013. Interestingly, rumor has it that Apple might also launch a bigger, 5-inch iPhone model, but speculations like these are too wild to be trusted at this time.

Now feel free to investigate the images below. What's your call on this one – true or fake?

And where is the innovation in Android?Or in the latest Android flagships?iPhone 5 is faster than any Android handset on the market.In the latest 2-3 years I didn't see any innovative iOS or Android handset.
The only device that impressed me in last time was the Surface Pro.
Phonearena is full of trolls(iphone/android fanboys).

r u lost?? do some research before you write something...iOS came first into the market in 2007 and then android came in 2008...android was never planned to compete with iOS (coz google don't know) instead they (google) designed it to compete with BB OS...when suddenly apple launched iphone in '07 the game changed all of a sudden...google quickly revamped their OS for touch screens and in '08 android lauched G1...that is in brief...for more info read how & why eric shifted from apple board and became google CEO and google fortunes turned with android....etc...
So, don't just comment what ever u want, do some research (of course in google) and then write...

I wish they would innovate. It would be better for the industry. I honestly think a "5s" with the same design will make people wake up. Especially with the Galaxy SIV having visual improvements. I can see the Samsung commercials now if the iPhone of the summer ends up being this.

Really? I've worked with the Note II for a bit, and it seemed instantaneous with every action I made. My buddy owns one, and he says it has never lagged on him once. Same thing with the iPhone 5, another friend said it's always responsive and smooth, but he wishes the animations were faster.

WP has always been super smooth, even on my old Radar with a single core processor never lagged on me once.

Then there's a problem with ur Note II. I have mine since October 10th and until now have yet to find lag. There might be stuttering once in a blue moon, but that's it. I have 40+ apps, 5 homescreens filled with widgets and icons, 2 1080p movies, 300+ songs and 100+ pictures.

Its literally going to be the exact same except perhaps with a 13mp camera. Expect apple to claim the camera lens is so advanced that it makes the world 10 times more beautiful than before. Expects Ifans to drool claiming apple have changed everything again,only later after release a list of faults start again hitting complaints forums online only for apple to claim they don't exist.

The one point for us to ponder is what money making gimmick will they use for the iPhone 5s to claim more money of purchasing Ifans,the new charger was the money making ticket for the iPhone 5,what can we expect with the 5s?

And why do u feel the need to say that? Who are u waring? Those who don't like apple already feel this way, and those who do like apple could care less cuz they generally enjoy the end user experience. It seems like u say the same stuff all the time, just to b heard. We know u don't like apple, believe me we get the picture. The excess hot air isn't necessary... And I'm not trying to disrespect, or insult u. I just wonder why do u get on every apple related article to say the same stuff, and pretty much what u said on all the other apple related articles...just wondering what your point, or goal is?

Thank u Ted. I am not a fanboy. And will call apple out in a heartbeat if I feel they deserve it, same for el goog. There are things about iOS that I absolutely love, and things I hate. Same goes for android, I have both platforms flagship devices, and since I use both on the regular I can actually accurately credit and criticize them. Darkjedii is a techie, not a fanboy.

I don't care about the design, I just want them to do something different with iOS 7.

The 5S will probably have a 12 or 13 MP Sony camera, probably an upgraded processor which might be a quad core variant of the A6 with updated graphics to PowerVR SGX544MP3 (hopefully to run the new and improved iOS 7).

If they do make a second larger model to accompany the iPhone 5S (which I doubt, but anything's possible), if the screen size is 4.5+" AND they completely overhaul iOS 7, that'll make it go on my list as a possible next device. The only thing holding me back from the iPhone is the small screen and restricted OS. I have a nice list of possibilities for my next device;

Next iPhone (if screen is at least 4.5" and iOS 7 is nowhere near as restrictive as iOS was before)

If IOS 7 is any different from previous versions, i will probably keep my iphone 5. The 5s will only have beefier specs on paper but real life performance will see little to no improvements. the heaviest 3rd games run outrageously smooth on the i5 it doesn't look like any software update will hold it back anytime soon.

I do think believe Google will secure it's lead with Key Lime Pie next May and i will probably get the Motorola X if it didn't disappoint hardware wise.
